Hello,
I'm not sure if this is the right board for Elk Point but seems to be close on the map. My grandmother's brother Albert born Colborne, Ontario 1878 wrote a letter from Elk Point in 1947. Mentions his surviving children as a son Bob, a daughter Mildred and son Art. Mildred is married with 4 children lives 9 miles away in Spring Port or Spring Point.
Anyone out there know where that is or was? I can't find it on today's map. Also does anyone know who Mildred TURNEY married? She was likely born abt 1913 or later.
History book on Elk Point mentions TURNEY's helping build a Community Hall at Long Lake abt 1936 - I suspect this is Albert and maybe his son Bob who also lived there at that time. Albert mentions he himself as being a carpenter. Bob I believe moves to BC abt 1950.
I think Albert TURNEY and his wife Mary likely died in Elk Point. Anyone having any information on them would be much appreciated if you would share it with me. You can email me directly if preferred marygirl16@hotmail.com - Thanks Mary
